Actor Lisa Cash recently revealed an interesting insider fact about the hit TV show FRIENDS that could have changed the course of the storyline. In the famous episode "The One in Vegas: Part 1" from season five, Cash was originally cast to play a crucial role that would have created a romantic dilemma for the characters Chandler Bing and Monica Geller. The original script depicted Chandler being tempted by Cash's character, a hotel employee who would deliver room service to his Las Vegas hotel room, following a heated argument with Monica.
This encounter was meant to drive Chandler towards a betrayal of his commitment to Monica. However, thanks to the intervention of actor Matthew Perry, who played Chandler, this plot twist never saw the light of day.
Perry, sensing the potential backlash from such a storyline, expressed his concerns to the show's writers and advocated for the preservation of Chandler's loyalty to Monica. Ultimately, the storyline was revised.
Cash acknowledged that while the scene could have been a career boost for her, as she would have been paired against Perry, the decision to remove it was the right move, considering how strongly the show's dedicated fan base felt about the development of Chandler and Monica's relationship.
